Pyruvate Decarboxylation

Pyruvate Decarboxylation is a metabolic reaction, classified as a non-oxidative decarboxylation, that converts pyruvate into acetaldehyde and carbon dioxide through the action of the enzyme pyruvate decarboxylase, serving as a critical intermediate step linking glycolysis to alcoholic fermentation in yeast and certain microorganisms.
